Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Malbolge is known to be one of the most esoteric programming languages. Although it becomes possible to write programs in Malbolge language due to the development of the low-level assembly language, the programming in the low-level assembly language is difficult. This is because the arithmetic instructions of the low-level assembly language are not those of ordinary programming languages, but the same as the ones of Malbolge. To construct a program in low-level assembly language, it is necessary to find instruction sequences of Malbolge that implement binary trit-wise functions. For finding such instruction sequences, however, an inefficient exhaustive search is the only known method, which is one of limitations in developing programs in the low-level assembly language. In this paper, to solve this problem, we propose a method to find instruction sequences of Malbolge that implement binary trit-wise functions, which is more efficient due to the use of state-of-art SAT solvers. We formalize a problem that finds an instruction sequence of Malbolge that implements a given binary trit-wise function,and propose a SAT encoding for this problem. Experiments shows that our method is able to find instruction sequences faster than the existing method and hence essentially longer ones.
